[comp.sys.mac.apps] Anyone tried "Image Analyst"?

Has anyone tried the application program Image Analyst from Automatix
Inc.? We are interested to hear any comments about it from the users'
point of view.

						Thanks,

Sorry to post a "Try Nisus" answer to a specific question, but e-mail
to Mr. Geissler bounced.  Make sure that you try the public domain
application "Image v.1.33" by Wayne Rasband.  It is a powerful, script-
controllable image capture and analysis application that is being used 
successfully by researchers for tasks ranging from image enhancement to
quantitative metallography.

For my application, Image out-performed a dedicated 64-grey level
Quantimet, offering greater ease-of-use at 256-grey level resolution.
Better still, the source code has also been placed in the public
domain.

The Image 1.33g application and documentation can be found in the 
sumex archives (IP# - 36.44.0.6) in the /info-mac/app directory.  
Pointers to an ftp site for the source code and additional info
can be found in the Image manual.
